I don't like him either. I think I know who you might be on DS, I could be wrong but it's quite an obvious username if it is you.


I used to like him and he was one of my fave's in the auditions and boot camp however we only see them for a few minutes at a time at that stage of the contest. Yes thats me on DS, I only chose that name in honour of my fave show .

Back on topic, I hope Chico is gone this week, and that Brenda makes the final. Brenda is just amazing, so much better than Andy, who has not really challenged himself vocally, where as Brenda as had much more of a range of songs than Andy. I would realistically like Brenda, Journey South and Shayne, there's obviously no getting round the fact that he will be in the final and there's nothing we can do about it! Sad



It wouldn't surprise me if there was another shock in the next few weeks that saw Shayne leave.

It's a shame the judges voting stops this week - I'd say it be between Andy and Chico to go next week, and think Louis would vote out Andy, Simon would vote out Chico leaving it up to Sharron - and I haven't got a clue which way she'd go! She'd probably refuse again!


I think she said on the ITV2 show she would this year if she had to choose between 2 of her own, however I suppose it hardly matters now since the judges votes has been done away with. I expect Chico will go next week, then Andy, leaving the other 3 in the final

Yeah, I can see Chico going, whether Andy leaves the next week remains debatable. I can see it being a close race between him and Brenda. Journey South and Shayne are very popular at the moment so I think they have definitely secured their places in the final. So it looks as if many peoples predictions at the beginning of the show were right. Each judge will have an act in the final if all goes to plan.

I'm so glad Chico got the chop - he got on my nerves every single week. IMO, Shayne was average while Brenda and Journey South were fantastic. Andy will be next to go I think.

Thank god Chico got axed. I haven't watched the X Factor much since the auditions ended, but from what I have seen of Chico, he is truly dire. I can't stand the guy, and he is rather talentless IMO.

As for "Chico Time", someone pass me the sick bucket, please. Pale

Thank god and thanks to everyone who didnt vote for Chico tonight, the guy's a joke and has a big head. Can see Shane/Journey South for the the final 2 with Shane being the outright winner.

Sorry to say Chico Time will be a xmas top ten hit Confused

No way! X Factor bosses wouldn't be as stupid to release Chico's song and the winners at the same time!

It depends on who signs him up. The X Factor bosses won't be able to control whether the record company releases Chico's record, that's assuming that Chico isn't signed by BMG, which looks very likely anyway.

It's written into the contract of the show that any 'losers' of the X Factor cannot release a single/album until a certain period of time after the winner has.

Journey South completely ruined it for me.

Candle in the Wind is NOT a song that should be given any sort of rock treatment, and their shouting towards the end just made me cringe. They ARE NOT the X Factor and never will be. Talentless.

Re Andy, I didn't think Easy Lover was all that terrible - I think there was a considerable amount of hyperbole involved in Simon/Louis' comments. Brenda was amazing, her top B was outstanding. Shayne was distinctly average.
